pride and joy

歌詞

ガラじゃない ばっかりじゃない
なんか そんなんじゃなくて
ちょっとしたワガママ

別に 偉くもなくて
特に 凄くもなくて
たまに 卑屈に泣いたり
疲れて眠ったり

自己犠牲気取りのComplex
お約束 予定調和に溺れる

順風満帆
少しくらい 酔いの瀬 流されて

いいんじゃない？ 本気じゃない
容赦ない 悪意に飛び込んで
暴れるのも脳内まで
もうプライドなんか どうだって
いいんじゃない？ ゴメンじゃない！
しょうがない の一言で全部
OKにしちゃいなよ そのほうが
どうせ 呆れるほど気持ちいいよ 絶対

言葉 不器用だけど
嘘も 下手糞だけど
格好つかないままには
懺悔もありゃしない

どこにあるの秘密の Radiant treasure
誰も見つけてきてはくれないね

威風堂々
何回目の自己主張 その台詞は
肩を落とし損ね 震える 握り拳に誓いな

昔 上手に描いた張子の虎は
吼える 黄金映しの野性を許した
打算喰らい尽くして もっと輪になるのさ 皆で
Dance“MAXX”show すっ転んでも ブッ飛んでも

いいんじゃない？ 冗談じゃない
遠慮ない 強気な顔しても
知ったかぶりが関の山
まーだけど偶には そんなのも
いいんじゃない？ 当然じゃない？
しょうもない 笑い話にしよう
恥は掻き捨て そのほうが
どうせ 愛されてるってば 実感できるから
Are you ready?

Translation

It doesn’t suit me! I don’t do that all the time!
It’s… it’s not like that!
I’m just a little selfish.

I’m not particularly remarkable,
And I’m not especially amazing.
Sometimes, I cry menially,
Get tired, and go to sleep.

A complex of pretending at self-sacrifice.
I drown in that promised pre-established harmony.

Smooth sailing.
I’m washed away by the currents of intoxication, just a bit.

It’s all good, right? You’re not serious!
It’s inexcusable – I dive into ill will.
Violence reaches inside my mind.
My pride’s not worth worrying about anymore…
It’s all good, right? You’re not sorry!
You can’t just make everything okay
By just saying “it can’t be helped”!
Anyway, that would make you feel so good you’d be shocked. For sure!

Though I’m awkward with words,
And my lies are hopeless,
When I don’t put on appearances,
Repentance doesn’t even exist.

I wonder where that secret, radiant treasure is?
Nobody will come to find it for me, will they…?

Being majestic…
Those words are my self-assertion. Who knows how many times I said them?
I don’t drop my shoulders: I tremble, and make a vow on my clenched fist.

The paper-mache tiger I made so skilfully in the past
Howls, releasing a wildness that reflects gold.
If it eats up selfishness to exhaustion, everyone will join together as even more of a ring, you know.
This Dance “MAXX” show will continue, even if we all fall down, or leap away..

It’s all good, right? It’s no joke!
Even if I don’t hold back and look confident,
Pretending to know is the most I can do.
Still, doing stuff like that once in a while…
It’s all good, right? It’s natural, right?
I’ll tell you a stupid, funny story –
It’s better to lose your inhibitions!
Anyway, if I can be loved by you, I’ll be able to really feel it,
So are you ready?
